Beware My Friends

Down the drain it swept the innocent Unto the land of disgust it spat them out So sad were these moments Where people saw many unfair decisions take place Destroying the dignity of many around I touched the flower with the tip of my finger Blood oozed out so quickly Pain blinded me so severely For as I looked closer, a thorn had scratched my skin Cutting its warm and safe house I realized that even flowers had their something swept away Something if lost, deterioration takes place Thus, health was what it had lost Due to the lovely climate we created Oh flower it is not your fault, For we are the destroyers that swept away your life Do forgive us, for some didn't mean it Yet, they adored the way you sat outside and danced With the wind's song so loud and clear Many characters and factors have been crushed And into dust they have become All is caused by the selfish behaviors of people Roaming around so happy and peacefully Beware, my friends, for one day, Someone will arrive and sweep everything you obtain Watch out and be careful on the ways you treat the ones around For the way you treat them is how people shall treat you... Beware my friends, Beware....
